Detachment Rule: Annihilation Protocol
The most murderous Necrons of an Annihilation Legion retain no thought processes beyond destroying anything in reach. They are mechanised death, echoes of the industrialised and brutal processes of bio transference made manifest. Whether soullessly efficient or frenziedly deluded, these killing machines follow protocols that have atrophied into a singular and all-consuming insanity. Each time a DESTROYER CULT or FLAYED ONES unit from your army declares a charge , you can re-roll the Charge roll . If one or more targets of that charge are Below Half-strength , add 1 to the Charge roll as well. Each time a DESTROYER CULT unit from your army makes a ranged attack that targets the closest eligible target, add 1 to the Armour Penetration characteristic of that attack.
